Viktor, The Machine Herald

By Veigar the Dark Lord

• November 12, 2014




Age: 30

Gender: Male

Species: Alicorn

Cutie Mark: Viktor's Cutie Mark is that of a Gear, a golden gear, representing his true love for engineering, robots and the 'metalization' of everything that breaths.

Personality: Viktor is a rather shy and reserved pony. He isn't one to talk around others and he likes loneliness. He is quite insecure due to others mocking him for what he looks like after fully 'mechanizing' himself. Despite that, he is a true comrade, one hell of a person who you can trust any duty. He is always there, and always willing to help...provided you are on his side.

Backstory: Not pretty much is known about Viktor. His personal record started when he was 12, when he started high school. Nothing is known about his birthplace, his parents, nothing. Nothing. His most obvious fixation is towards machines. Ever since he was little, he always liked to build machines, small robots, things that moved by themselves. He loved the feeling of metal, it was something that made him feel strong and secure of himself. Of course, he was bullied a lot for being such an open and obvious nerd, which were some of the causes that led him to think that if he turned himself into a robot, he would be able to free himself from the stupid mold that everypony suffered! It worked. At age 24, Viktor managed to finish his latest invention: a machine that was supposed to put together metal pieces and form from a scratch a metallic body. It was an incredible success. His machine was hired just about everywhere. But he denied. His science was too powerful for the mere and weak-minded Equestrian to handle, or so he thought. To prove himself more worthy than anyone else, he tried his machine on himself and the outcome was fantastic for him. His whole body, or almost every part of it, had been metalized and was working perfectly. He even built himself a robotic hand to use for everyday activities and for lab work. Now, the only thing he does is to perfect his machines even more and dream of his everlasting dream: the day he will make a huge-sized machine that will turn all Equestria into robots who will obey him, because for him, 'metalization' is the only way for living.<br /><br />On a side note, Viktor was born a 'faulty' alicorn. Although his wings worked perfectly, his horn didn't work at all, and he was treated as a Pegasus in high school. When he metalized himself, his horn was enhanced with his technology and, whilst the new magic that has been empowered with his science is powerful, it's not as dangerous as that of true Alicorns, but still a force to be reckoned with.
